Posttranslational Mechanisms Regulate the Mammalian Circadian Clock
The issue of interest in these three research topics is the Circadian Clock. The first article, ‘Posttranslational Mechanisms Regulate the Mammalian Circadian Clock’ examines the posttranslational regulation of this clock in the liver of a mouse. The study published in this article used the mPER1 and the mPER2 proteins, the BMAL1 and the CLOCK proteins to show their significance in the stabilization of phosphorylated mPER2 proteins by the mCRYs. This article shows the Circadian rhythms to be greatly influenced by the biological clocks in the mammalian bodies. The timing system in mammals for example, is shown to be organized in a ...
